Hello

I've been using linux for 3 years now but never before fedora, i just installed Fedora 34 KDE and im having issues ive never had before, im wondering why and what i can do about it.

for example, ctrl+c seems not to be working. i have to look up a lot of guides and copy a lot of commands from websites using firefox and i want to paste them in the terminal but its finnicky, often doesnt, i cant quite get a hang of when it does and why sometimes it refuses.

another issue is ctrl+w works to close tabs but ctrl+f4 doesnt, but alt+f4 does work. what the hell?

I discovered after far too long that KDE can affect your keyboard shortcuts so I would check shortcuts in Systems Settings. ctl+c is virtually universal though so I don't know why that isn't working. What happens if you start FF in "troubleshoot mode"? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode

Try the Firefox version from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution.
